On the surface, a Keenan Lewis reunion in Pittsburgh makes sense.
The former Steelers cornerback visited with the team this week after being cut by the Saints, but a deal doesn’t seem imminent.
According to Gery Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, the Steelers “did not like what they saw” in regards to Lewis’ hip injury, which could delay or derail his signing.
Lewis missed 10 games last season and didn’t practice much this offseason with the Saints, and if the hip problem is troubling the team which should know his medical file well, it might not be a good sign for his immediate future.
Other teams are reportedly interested, and it will be worth watching to see if they have the same medical concerns, or whether a positional need could override that.
